Events

Lights, camera, action! Everybody loves movies and pictures – even historians. Come investigate historic movies and photographs and see what they can tell you about Michigan’s past. Learn how cameras work and create your own Michigan-history inspired movie.

Families and children can create make-it take-it crafts and participate in hands-on activities which related to the Museum’s permanent and temporary exhibitions on selected dates throughout the year. This program is included with museum admission, which is free this day due to support from Jackson National Life and the Michigan History Foundation.
